Rainbow Six Siege is almost a decade-old game. Being a tactical shooter which is now a crowded space with games coming from left, right, and center it still holds up its value even in the current market. Not only that Rainbow Six also has a big e-sport scene backing it to be even more strong.
Don’t get me wrong The e-sport of Rainbow Six Siege is not the biggest one in the tactical shooter genre but it still holds up pretty well. There are around 4 thousand Rainbow Six esports professionals out there. Some of them are not active as of now but imagining that an e-sport is a very difficult career path. Thousands of people have already made it into the scene making this game bigger than its community.
Rainbow Six Siege has seen some wonderful players over its decade e-sport spree. Some of them are better than everybody else and even fewer are on the other level when it comes to this game. So in this blog, we are going to talk about those players. Players who are the most influential have won the most tournaments and earned the community’s respect.
We are going to talk about the 10 best players of all time in Rainbow Six Siege. I will rank them according to how much they played and how accomplished they were in their career. So this list is going to be objective because we would have something to benchmark these players’ success.
Beaulo:
Player’s Ingame Settings and Equipments:
The first player on the list is Beaulo the reasoning behind his inclusion in this list is pretty simple. He is one of the most famous r6 players in the scene who plays Deimos like no one else can. Not only that, his signature mouse move where he rotates his mouse 360° before or after making a play is pretty famous even for e-sport fans outside of Rainbow Six’s circuit.
Jason “Beaulo” Doty is a 23-year-old guy and he is currently playing under the flag of DarkZero Esports. While Beaulo’s career might not be at the peak he still deserved the spot that he got in this list. I might even put him a little higher but it is what it is. With close to half a million in prize money winnings and having 2 S-tier titles under his belt, Beaulo has a stellar career in siege.
Geometrics:
Player’s Ingame Settings and Equipments:
Emilio “Geometrics” Leynez is a 29-year-old Mexican Rainbow Six Siege player and he is currently representing Soniqz. A team that is renowned for its Pubg Roster. Nonetheless geometrics mains castle and with his $, 473000 prize money earnings he is currently the 10th highest earning e-sport pro in the whole Rainbow Six scene. With an R6 invitation under his belt and last year’s American league.
He proves that he still has it.
Beaulo and geometrics have played with each other in Tsm where they won their first and only R6 Invitational after that in 2022 both parted ways. Where Beaulo announced his retirement which he took back a year later And geometrics joined the sonics after beaulo announced his retirement. Now both of them are on different rosters
Psycho:
Player’s Ingame Settings and Equipments:
The next on the list is “Gustavo Eugênio Rigal Dos Santos” ” He goes by the alias “Psycho” and he is currently playing for ninjas in pajamas as their in-game leader. The 25-year-old has been part of the r6 E-sport circuit since the very beginning of it. The first big win that Psycho got was in 2017 with black dragons where he won the 2017 R6 Pro League. His biggest win was the Six Invitational 2021 and his latest win is dated before a year when he won a BLAST R6 Major Copenhagen 2023’s SiegeGG’s EVP.
With more than 7 years of experience and exposure to delivering at the highest stages of the game I would say that now ninjas in pajamas are in the right hands under the leadership of psycho.
Julio:
Player’s Ingame Settings and Equipments:
The first coach on the list. “Julio Coelho Neto Giacomelli” just goes by his first name as an alias which is pretty uncommon from what I’ve seen and covered. Julio is currently coaching “Bleed Esports”. But Julio wasn’t always a coach. Once he was a superstar who was representing his country on the biggest echelons of esports.
But as the time moved on the spark in him just faded away. As the career of an e-sport professional starts to decline with age and Julio is in his early 30s that’s why he decided to step down and become a coach. With 2 S-tier titles to his name and having 400k prize-winning money I would say that he has accomplished what the game’s scene has to offer.
Many players who stopped playing on professional levels started to work with multiple Rainbow six siege boosting services to help people get better at game.
FelipoX:
Next on the list is FelipoX his real name is Felipe De Lucia and he is a resident of Brazil. Felip is currently playing for the Brazilian powerhouse Furia Esports. The 22-year-old had just won this year’s invitational as well as last year’s majors at Atlanta with w7m esports. His transition on Furia has not been the smoothest as they got placed 5th at this year’s major and 4th on Esports World Cup 2024.
On the brighter side at 21 years of age feliX has already achieved what a professional dreams of. He got a major to his name following up with an r6 invitational win. In total, he has won 8 titles from all tiers in 6 years Which is admirable.
HerdsZ:
The next on the list is also a Brazilian Rainbow Six player but don’t he is the last one on the list. The reason behind these many Brazilians popping up in the list is that these three have won two back-to-back tier titles which have inflated their prize-winning as well as their clout as professional players.
Now let’s talk about HerdsZ, the reason for his appearance in the list. His stats are beyond great with the ratings of 1.23 while being an in-game leader and being a support player is incomprehensible. HerdsZ is currently leading Furia’s Rainbow Six site with these great numbers he will surely pull off another glamorous win shortly.
Pengu:
Player’s equipment and in-game settings:
The first retiree on the list is Pengu and the list would not be completed without him. Niclas “Pengu” Mouritzen is a Swedish Rainbow Six Siege who has retired from competitive play and now works as a content creator for Psg Talon. With back-to-back invitational wins and major wins, Pengu has pulled off more than an average player could imagine.
Pengu has represented Penta Esports as well As the infamous esport company G2. with upwards of 300k in prize money winnings. He is regarded as one of the greatest players in this game.
Canadian:
Player’s Equipments and in-game settings:
The next on the list in Canadian and yeah this guy wins the laziest alias maker of all time. I mean who makes his gaming name based on his nationality? Whatever, let’s not distract ourselves from the topic. So Canadian retired himself one time before in 2021 but came back just after 4 months since then he changed 2 rosters.
Now let’s talk about his achievements. He has 2 invitational wins as well as 1 major not only that he has also been to many finals with underdog teams. He is considered to be the kingmaker in the community. Now the guy is getting old but in his prime, he was a beast.
Goga:
Player’s Equipment and in-game settings:
Next on the list is another retired player but don’t he is the last one. Goga is probably the greatest support player the game has ever seen. Daniel “Goga” Mazorra is a 29-year-old Spanish Rainbow Six player. In his career which spans over 7 years, he has represented 5 teams and has won S-tier titles for 2 of them and has won A-tier tournaments for all of them.
Goga has been retired from the game for over a year but his fans still argue to this day that he is the single greatest player that the game has ever produced. GOGA has retired but he is still a part of this community.
Shaiiko:
Player’s equipment and in-game settings:
The last player on the list is Shaiko and without a doubt, he is the most celebrated player of Rainbow Six Siege. Shaiko’s real name is Stéphane Lebleu and he is from France. Shaiiko has been playing this game since its inception and he got his first crack at the e-sport scene in 2017 with Aera Esports. And since those days he hasn’t looked. I am cutting down the period where he got banned for using macros in the pro league and got banned for a year and a half.
Shaiiko and his team have recently won the e-sport World Cup 2024. With more than 750k $ in prize-winning money. Shaiiko has toppled the bar after being the most successful Rainbow Six player of all time. With more than anyone on the list while also having to wait almost 2 years for a mistake he made. I am assured that at the end of his career, he would be light years ahead of the rest of the players in the r6 esports circuit.
Final words:
I have missed out on a couple of players like Brid and Jv92. but in this list is taking factors into the prize money that a player has won as well as the impact he had on the events he won. Nonetheless, if you would have made a different list than me You should comment down below on how your list looks like or which player I have added unjustly. Till then goodbye.
